Someone's butthurt.
Explain how you know everything if you didn't play in vanilla.
This is just a nostalgia thread to remember how it was like, like I wrote in the OP.
It's amazing to see how bothered some people are about this... I don't get it. Click on the thread, know what it's about, but still keep flaming everyone. Get out.

OT:
When we farmed fade leaf as rogues, haha.
When all rogues knew Ming, the rogue hero, haha.

How we know all those things? Because we've seen this exact thread about 9001 times already.

I'm butthurt? Because I've seen the same thread a billion times? You would have known if you did a simple search. Most of the things you mentioned AREN'T EVEN VANILLA SPECIFIC. I got my Benediction in WotLK, does that mean I remember Vanilla?

I didn't flame anyone, I simply said that none of your "memories" prove that you played vanilla. It's facts that anyone knows by now. Because of, omg, threads like these.

If you told me a story on the other hand, about some specific experience or some grind, I'd respected your thread and story. This is just a list of features, that again, most were still there until Cata.

Dunno if it was mentioned before, but I know I played vanilla and one would loose his/her pvp rank if you did not keep up with pvp. I got to rank 7 to get the blue caster boots for my priest, because the ones from ubrs wouldn't drop. Than at some point I slacked with pvp and I lost my rank, which meant I could no longer wear the rank 7 boots and raided molten core on my bare feet .
You know you played vanilla if you at least once have spend >5 hours in Stratholme/Lbrs/BRD/UBRS.

First of all, weapon skills were still around in WOTLK ("Did someone order a knuckle sandwich" was an achievement for getting 400 unarmed skill)
Secondly, that +int buff for increasing skill is a complete myth.

When the mount not the riding skill cost more gold. (changed to stop gold transfers)
When you slightly panicked every time you looted a mob. (pick-up bug)
When jumping and spinning meant climbing any wall.

You know you played beta when.... everyone had a party in Ironforge as the servers came down before launch.

You played Vanilla as a healer when you farmed for the Hide of the Wild (http://www.wowhead.com/item=18510/hide-of-the-wild)
You played Vanilla as a priest when you had fun mcing people in Blackrock into the Lava
You played Vanilla as a priest when you farmed Eye of Shadow in the Darkwhisper Gorge (or got it from Kazzak/AH)
You played Vanilla when you farmed Elemental Fire in Arathi
